Most of my white colleagues: this tweet is especially for you.
To see so many of you talk shit about Amy Cooper, tweet incessantly about Black ppl and injustice, w/o ever (to my knowledge) accounting for a) the Black (mostly) women who taught you bc we don’t get to choose; (1/)

b) tolerate your conservatism in meetings about shit that negatively impacts Black & brown ppl in DC whilst being social justice Sunday’s outside of those meetings (namely on social media); c) not cite folks who taught you—your lessons learned on our backs...
It makes me hot.

I mean don’t just go chalk outside Jeff Bezos’ house. Someone should have BEEN rolled up on him. He shouldn’t have a comfortable SECOND in this city. More and more white ppl w/BLM posters in the yard, but Jeff still coolin? I think TF not.
And yes, I’m pissed. Because i don’t have to watch the fucking video of yet another Black person dying or another white complicit ass scallywag to witness the damage of whiteness. I get the distinct privilege of living the shit every damn day.
And i don’t mean the murderous motherfuckers who do things like kill unarmed Black ppl AFTER we are dead, bc that’s easy pickings for you. I mean your daddy the DA. Your cousin the attorney. Your BOSS using nonprofit dollars to underserve Black & brown ppl (we on the website tho)
I mean like, i laugh because it’s completely and utterly predictable, but frfr Amy Cooper is a lowdown white bitch, and some of you have been that very same.
Do some reflection. Some accounting. Some citation. THEN, collect these other white ppl.
